Factors to consider when planning a iPSC reprogramming project
(WorldNews Japan)

When you are considering beginning a project involving iPSC reprogramming, there are several factors to consider when choosing a reprogramming technology and a service provider. Which reprogramming technology should I use? There are many available technologies for generating iPSCs, each with their strengths and weaknesses (Table 1). It is important to make sure that the core technology matches with the goals of your project. Important variables to consider include time to usable iPSCs, quality of the iPSCs, and clinical relevance of the technology. Why use mRNA for reprogramming? Using mRNA for reprogramming provides the optimal combination of efficiency, speed, quality, and clinical...
